Appliances and white goods

Accepted with preparation

The SMaRT Station lists household appliances among the materials it accepts for a fee, and the on-call collection takes bulky items such as appliances on request, so a washer or dryer has two possible routes.

City cost & eligibility
The SMaRT Station charges by material type per cubic yard or per large item and the rate table was not read here, and the on-call collection does not name appliances explicitly, so confirm which route and what charge applies.
When & how
Request the on-call collection through the How to Get Rid of Anything tool, or take the unit to the SMaRT Station at 301 Carl Road, open 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. seven days a week, with proof of residency and a covered load.
Get it ready
Empty the unit and remove or secure the doors. Keep appliances out of the carts, and confirm the route for anything that holds refrigerant before the unit leaves the property.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Bulky items are requested, not left out

Sunnyvale takes furniture, electronics and other bulky items on an on-call curbside collection, and a household may schedule two of them a year at no additional charge. The request runs through the How to Get Rid of Anything tool, where you select Bulky Item Collection, and the same tool shows the collection schedule, holiday notices and recycling events.

Hazardous waste drops off by appointment

Household hazardous waste cannot legally go in the garbage. Santa Clara County runs weekly drop-off events on Fridays and Saturdays excluding holidays, disposal is free to residents, and every visit needs an appointment booked online or on 408-299-7300, with businesses booking separately on 800-207-8222. Oil-based paints, solvents, batteries, pool chemicals, pesticides, fluorescent bulbs, medicines and sharps are all on the hazardous list.

For your Dropcurb pickup

Use a permitted, accessible outdoor spot. Arrange the move out of your home, keep shared access clear and follow your confirmation’s readiness instructions. Check with your building about access or staging limits before booking.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Sunnyvale has one curbside route and one gate. Furniture, electronics and other bulky items come off the curb on an on-call collection that single-family and multi-family residents can schedule twice a year at no additional charge through the How to Get Rid of Anything tool, and extra bagged garbage goes out with a six dollar tag on a bag no larger than 35 gallons and under 30 pounds. Everything self-hauled goes to the SMaRT Station at 301 Carl Road, open 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. seven days a week and closed on the three collection holidays, where household discards, appliances, furniture, green waste, construction and demolition debris, concrete, dirt, clean wood, asphalt, brick, pavers and tires are accepted with proof of residency and a covered load. Hazardous waste, liquids and treated wood are refused there and instead go to Santa Clara County's weekly hazardous waste drop-off events on Fridays and Saturdays, free to residents by appointment on 408-299-7300. Two extra dumping weekends a year let any Sunnyvale resident bring non-hazardous loads to the SMaRT Station free.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

Appliance removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Sunnyvale.

How much does appliance removal cost in Sunnyvale?

A full-size household refrigerator is $109 as a single item. A washing machine is $109, and a dryer is $109. Other appliances have their own catalog prices. Choose each item to see your exact total before booking; disposal and recycling costs are included in the item price.

Can I get same-day appliance pickup in Sunnyvale?

Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup, where available. Checkout shows the dates you can choose. Your pickup is scheduled for a day rather than an exact arrival appointment, and we text you before arrival. Have the appliance disconnected and ready outside by your pickup readiness time.

Can you take a washing machine and dryer in one pickup?

Yes. Add one Washing machine and one Dryer so both units are included in the price. They are separate items, even when you bought them as a set. If yours is a single combined unit or the machines still need to be unstacked, contact us before booking to confirm the scope.

Will you disconnect my appliance or carry it out?

Dropcurb picks up appliances that are already disconnected and accessible outside at ground level. Arrange uninstallation, utility disconnection and indoor carrying before pickup. Use a qualified professional for gas, hardwired or plumbing connections when needed. We handle loading and haul-away from the outdoor pickup spot.

Can I book if the delivery company did not take my old appliance?

Yes. Dropcurb pickup is separate from buying or installing a replacement, so you can book removal on its own. Select the old appliance, choose a pickup day and arrange for it to be disconnected and accessible outside. If your new delivery is still ahead, confirm the retailer’s haul-away arrangements before booking a separate pickup.

How are appliances handled in Sunnyvale?

Two routes are published. Household appliances appear on the SMaRT Station accepted material list, where rates are set by material type per cubic yard or per large item, and the on-call curbside collection takes bulky items such as furniture and electronics twice a year at no additional charge. Confirm the appliance with the city when you request the collection, or take it to 301 Carl Road with proof of residency.Official guidance

Who collects trash and bulky items in Sunnyvale?

The city provides garbage and recycling to every residence and business in Sunnyvale at least once a week, franchises Specialty Solid Waste & Recycling, and operates the SMaRT Station on Carl Road. Bulky items are requested through the How to Get Rid of Anything tool by selecting Bulky Item Collection rather than handled by a hauler phone booking.Official guidance

How do I book a bulky item collection in Sunnyvale?

Use the How to Get Rid of Anything tool and select Bulky Item Collection. Single-family and multi-family residents can schedule an on-call curbside collection twice a year at no additional charge for furniture, electronics and other bulky items, and the same tool shows the collection schedule and holiday notices.Official guidance

What are the rules for a trip to the SMaRT Station?

Bring a driver license showing Sunnyvale residency or a business license showing the operating location, cover and secure the load because an uncovered load draws a fifteen dollar fee, and expect rates set by material type per cubic yard or per large item. Hazardous waste, liquids and treated wood are not accepted, and recycling, paint and compost services are limited to the cities listed on the eligibility table.Official guidance
